GQ reported if President Obama wins a second term, he’ll tackle the Drug War. The article says the war on drugs “devastated entire communities… and has led to a generation of young children, disproportionately Black and minority, to grow up in dislocated homes.” Okay—but crack did that too.
Jeneba Tarmoh and Allyson Felix finished in a tie for third place in the 100-meter dash, so were supposed to have a winner-take-all to determine who made the Olympics. Cool.

“4 summers ago, I met somebody. I was 19-years-old. He was too. We spent that summer, and the summer after, together. By the time I realized I was in love, it was malignant. It was hopeless. There was no escaping, no negotiating with the feeling. No choice. It was my first love, it changed my life.” —Kanye’s protégé, Frank Ocean, revealing that he’s gay on Tumblr.
